complex applications using web technologies. The course will
include In-depth coverage of markup languages such as the
Hypertext Markup Language (HTML), Dynamic Hypertext

Markup Language (XHTML).</p>
Practice – Paragraph Elements
Within the first article, after the “The Basic Stick”

tricks, but is flashy enough to impress
your friends. Enjoy the following:
Blockquote Elements

</ul>
Where typename is disc, square, or circle.
Unordered lists
 Example:
<ul type= “disc”>

<li>Javascript</li>
</ul>
Ordered Lists
 Present items in a sequential order.
 Syntax:
<ol type= “typename”>
<li>First list item</li>
<li>Second list item</li>
<li>Third list item</li>
…
</ol>
Where typename is 1, A, a, I, or i.
Ordered Lists
 Example:
<ol type= “1”>
<li>January</li>
<li>February</li>
<li>March</li>
<li>April</li>
</ol>
Description Lists
 Contain a list of terms, each followed by a description.

Applying an External Style Sheet
 What is a style sheet or CSS?
 Inline style sheet vs. external style sheet
 The link to the external style sheet should be placed wiithin
the head of the document.
 Syntax:
<link href=“filepath” rel=“stylesheet” type=“text/css” />
Where filepath is the filename and location of the style sheet
file.
Applying an External Style Sheet
<head>
<title>YouTube – Broadcast Yourself</title>
<link href= “youtubestylesheet.css” rel=“stylesheet”
type= “text/css”>
</head>
Practice – Link to External CSS
 Link basic.html to the basicstyles.css style sheet
file.
Running a JavaScript file
 Javascript: Programming language which helps make the Web
pages interactive and dynamic (and sometimes fix problems).
 Internal Javascript code vs. external Javascript file.
 Example of use: HTML5 is not supported by IE 8 and earlier
=> Use a Javascript file to fix the problem
 Syntax:
<script src=“filepath”></script>
 Example:
<script src=“modernizr-1.5.js”></script>
Practice – Running JavaScript file
Link basic.html to the modernizr-1-
5.js script file to enable HTML 5
support for older browsers.
